The Portland Trail Blazers and the Washington Wizards will square off for the second and final time this season on Friday, 7:00 pm US EST, at Capital One Arena.

The total is set at over/under 220.5 points as bookmakers anticipate a high-scoring game between two of the poorest defensive teams in the NBA.

The Portland Trail Blazers:

The 10-game losing streak finally ended for the Blazers as 2023 NBA Draft No.3 overall pick Scott Henderson posted 22 points and 10 assists to lead his team to an 89-86 win over the Charlotte Hornets.

DeAndre Ayton and Jabari Walker also chalked up big numbers in the game. Ayton finished with 24 points and 16 rebounds, while Walker added 14 points and a career-high 22 rebounds.

Portland is one of the worst scoring teams in the NBA, averaging 106.9 per game – which ranks 27th in the league.

The Washington Wizards:

The Wizards continue their free fall into the Eastern Conference standings after their gallant stand against the Los Angeles Lakers fell short, 125-120, on April 3.

Wizards star Jordan Poole put on a show in a losing effort as he shot 10-for-19 from the field for a team-high 29 points.

Washington has lost four of their last five games since racking up three straight Ws in late March.
